I predict a Australia VS West Indies final, given that they came very close to beating you in that match before. Good luck!
 
what's happened to England - this must be a set up ;)
 
Unless I'm wrong, you were beaten by England. So why doesn't it say they won a game on the points table? Another bug? Surely not.
 
that was the Super Six Round, they only won a game in the First Stage, so it's not a bug, look on Page Six, it shows they won some games

MATCH REPORT
South Africa won the toss and on a hot day at Port Elizabeth elected to bat. It wasn't a very good choice losing a wicket and only getting 3 runs in their first over. McGrath bowled his first over and conceded 7 runs of the over, including 1 dropped catch. But Australia weren't gonna pay for their mistakes claiming 5 wickets in the next 3 overs, including 3 wickets from the Young Victorian, Cameron White. As the game progressed the fielding mistakes of the Australian's became much more visible, but in the end they were on top, and on conceded 65 runs of their 9.3 overs. Cameron White the stand out performer with figures of 4/11 off 2 overs.

This was Australia's second lowest run chase of the championship and they started very shakily, losing the big wicket of Matthew Hayden on the first delivey of the innings. They lost two more wickets in quick sucsession of Gilchrist and Ponting, and were in trouble at 3/13. But Symonds was the key to this innings hitting 22 off 11 deliveries including two big sixes over Mid On. The wicket of Symonds looked the key and when he was dismissed Australia lost 3/8 and were looking in real trouble. The tail enders were now exposed and it was up to Shane Warne and Craig White. They done a good job, and strung together a 15 runs partnership. It was all over in 8.5 overs. The "Man of the Match" was awarded to Cameron White with figures of 4/11 and a score of 8*. Australia are heading to the Grand Final and play the winner of the match between New Zealand and West Indies.
